Seattle Smiles Dental

I’ve been a patient for nearly a decade, and this dentist office consistently impresses. The hygienists excel at leaving my mouth feeling refreshingly clean. Dr. Nguyen is attentive, gentle, and provides valuable recommendations. Plus, the predominantly female staff adds a welcoming touch to the overall experience. Highly recommended!

I took my son to Seattle Smiles for a tongue and lip tie revision at the recommendation of our lactation consultant. The procedure was quick and went well. Prior to the procedure I reached out to their office to have them run the estimates against our insurance to make sure that the procedures would be covered and get an estimate. They provided me with an estimate of $774 as the total out of pocket costs, with the rest being covered by insurance. I paid this amount on the day of the procedure. Several weeks later I received a bill in the mail for an additional $942. This meant that a procedure that was expected to cost $774 would now be a little over $1700. I reached out to the insurance company to see if there had been a mistake, but they appear to have processed our claim correctly. We called Seattle Smiles and asked if we could negotiate a reduction as I felt deceived by the original estimate. Seattle Smiles was unwilling to lower the bill. Be wary of the estimates provided as my final out of pocket cost was nearly a thousand dollars more than expected.

Our two week-old baby had a tongue tie impacting his ability to nurse. We were able to be seen quickly (that might have just been scheduling luck) and Dr Nguyen took care of his lip and tongue ties and provided us with appropriate after care education. After a week of doing the stretches and exercises (we were also seeing a lactation consultant) his tongue mobility massively improved and he began to latch well enough to switch from 24/7 triple feeding to 24/7 exclusively breastfeeding with appropriate weight gain!! Our lactation consultant was also very impressed with Dr Nguyen’s work.

Hands down the best dental care I’ve ever received. I’ve had care at around 1/2 dozen places due to lots of moving in my 20s. Kind care. The providers throughly explained care - the what/why and impact. Will be my long term provider in Seattle.

I feel very heard here and the staff all take great care to explain the process and what they're doing. Everyone is so attentive and kind and for someone with a lot of care needed on my teeth, it is greatly appreciated. The office has great views and is very calming.
